Go! you may call it madness, folly;
You shall not chase my gloom away!
There's such a charm in melancholy
I would not if I could be gay.
Where glowing embers through the room
Teach light to counterfeit a gloom.
With hue like that when some great painter dips
His pencil in the gloom of earthquake and eclipse.
